The company owner says she wanted to "start a conversation" about immigration - pretty sure we were already having that one.
Fox rejected the full add as too controversial, but posted the full thing on their website.
The problem for me is that the add seems to portray compassion and dignity for people who want to come to the US but if she's a Trump supporter, she can't have missed his main message which was just the opposite.
If she had made an ad showing that her company treats immigrants well and is strongly against exploitation and in favor of immigration reform and thinks the wall is a stupid idea, now that's something I could support. Now that I know the backstory I see that the ad was just a soft-pedaling of the Trump message. which is pretty gross.
It doesn't matter what she thinks. You act like she's this amazing storyteller that slyly and convincingly weaved this sneaky tale of supporting the Trump agenda via a master-crafted piece of cinema. If that was her purpose she obviously failed. The woman and the child in the piece didn't fill out any papers. They just walked over the border. You only know this because the b**** opened her mouth. Had she not you wouldn't know. It's like all of a sudden Shindler's List would cease being a great film if we found out some Nazi produced it.
